Update Post! May 4th, 2022 (Patreon)

Hey Patrons, here's your first update post for May 2022!

It's May Madness time, and I have a HUGE month planned for you! I've already revealed all of the upcoming remakes at the end of April, and have been working hard on getting every one of them ready for this month.

I still don't have the exact song order set in stone, but I can at least confirm the order of the first three songs coming as seen here on our current to-do list:

• 1: Cradle (Goldeneye 64)
• 2: Rusty Bucket Bay (Banjo-Kazooie)
• 3: Hyrule Temple (Zelda II)
• May: The 13th Struggle (Kingdom Hearts II)
• May: Solar Man (Mega Man 10)
• May: Valestein Castle (Ys III)
• May: Beware the Forest's Mushrooms (Super Mario RPG)
• May: Battle! Cynthia (Pokémon Diamond/Pearl)
• May: Emerald Hill Zone (Sonic 2)
• May: Supporting Me (Sonic Adventure 2)
• June: The Sun Rises (Okami)
• TBA: Waiting For You (Silent Hill 4)

So Cradle will be first, followed closely by Rusty Bucket Bay and Hyrule Temple. I'm expecting to get things started with Cradle by this weekend! The order for rest of the songs listed for May is still TBA, what I have above is mostly a rough outline and could be switching it up later in the month.

I have some other important things coming very soon...

For you all specifically, our next Patreon Stream is taking place at our usual place and time: tomorrow, May 5th, starting around 3:00 PM US Central Time. We'll be choosing one song from the Patreon Request List as usual, and I'll make my monthly handpicked choice off-stream and in the recap post shortly after.

The request list is up to date as of this post. For those of you on the request list tiers, you still have some time add or make updates over at the current request list post. 

Also coming later this month: a public Youtube Q&A/News Stream for the entire GaMetal community, the most important 'news' being the opening of the 2022 GaMetal Song Ballot! I'm still deciding on the date, but still plan on that being sometime in the middle of the month (likely the week of the 15th). I'll confirm the exact date sometime next week.

Last thing of note: 3 more songs have been added to streaming services (Spotify/iTunes/Amazon) since the last update post, for those of you looking to grab them in those places:

Battle! Elite Four (Hoenn)

Apple Music/iTunes
Amazon 

BIG SHOT (Deltarune)

Battle With the Four Fiends (Final Fantasy IV)

That's all for now, I'll see you again tomorrow for our monthly Patreon stream! 🤪👍🏼


TL;DR: Cradle next song up (coming this weekend), followed shortly after by Rusty Bucket Bay and Hyrule Temple. Rest of month's song order TBA. Patreon Stream tomorrow at usual date and time: May 5th, starting around 3:00 PM US Central. Public Youtube Q&A/News Live Stream and opening of 2022 GaMetal Song Ballot coming later this month, dates TBA. Thank you for being awesome! :)
